I see the security argument come up often but have never once heard an anecdote of someone having a security breach or whatever people are scared of happening because their chromebook was in developer mode.

Installing a chroot isn't that difficult, in fact it was actually kind of fun and started me on an incredible tech exploration journey that currently has me learning software development using Vim on a command line only linux distribution. I never would have imagined such a thing a year ago. It is weird thinking having a $140 refurbished acer c720 may have led me on a completely different, exciting life path.
